EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, titled "The repast of St Francis and Friar Masseo at the fountain" we are transported to a moment of profound spirituality. The scene depicts St Francis of Assisi and his fellow friar, Masseo, partaking in a humble meal by a serene fountain. Painted by Eugene Burnand in 1919, this color lithograph beautifully captures the essence of their encounter. As we gaze upon this image, we witness the embodiment of Saint Francis' teachings on poverty and simplicity. With an aura of tranquility surrounding them, both figures radiate devotion and faith. St Francis, known for his deep connection with nature and animals, praises poverty as a path towards spiritual enlightenment. The composition is filled with symbolism that speaks volumes about Christian values. The flowing water from the fountain symbolizes purity and renewal while emphasizing the importance of sustenance provided by God's creation. The monks' modest attire further emphasizes their detachment from material possessions. This artwork is based on "The Little Flowers of St Francis" published in 1919 by J. M Dent & Sons Limited. It serves as a testament to Burnand's talent for capturing moments infused with religious significance. Through this photograph print, viewers are invited to reflect on their own relationship with faith and contemplate the virtues espoused by Saint Francis – humility, compassion, and an unwavering dedication to serving others.
